We are helping an increasing number of children in a country where there is no state help. Without your financial support we cannot continue caring for and helping desperate children and their families.
Please help by sponsoring a child :
It costs about $50 per child per month to look after one child and provide for all needs i.e. food, clothing, accommodation, transport, school fees etc. If you become a sponsor we ask you to pay $50 a month. You will receive regular updates of your child's progress with pictures and news of important events in their life.
Sponsoring a Child of COSO
You may like to know that your regular donation is supplying the material needs of one child. If so, you may wish to consider sponsoring a child.
The children have varying expenses attached to their living expenses based on the stage they have reached in government school. Some older children have not been to school before coming to COSO and so are learning in the primary grades, where the fees are less that for secondary education.
The current annual cost of providing for the material needs of one child are as follows:
- Pre-school child
- Primary school child
- Secondary school child
- High school child
You may like to share sponsorship with your family or a group of friends at work, church or sports club, for example. This makes the financial commitment from each person less, according to the number of people in the group.
If you would like to know more, please email COSO at the above address for more details which include a specific breakdown of monthly costs for a child at each level of education. Let us know whether you would prefer to sponsor a girl or a boy (if you have a preference) and which school band you would like to choose. We will send you details of all children in that band who as yet have no sponsor. This scheme is in its infancy, so at the time of writing almost all our children are looking for a sponsor.
